Aaina Dekho homepage: one AI that understands Pakistani clothes

Context

Online fashion shoppers in Pakistan cannot see how an outfit looks on them, and generic try-on tools handle dupattas, hijabs and embroidery badly.

My role

Founder and sole engineer.

What I did

  • Built the try-on app in Angular with standalone components and signals: a model photo from one selfie, try-on, outfit layering, pose changes and a before/after view.
  • Wrote prompts specifically for South Asian garments and embroidery, on Google Gemini image models with an automatic fallback model.
  • Built serverless API functions on Vercel with layered abuse protection: per-device, per-IP, per-key and global daily limits counted in Redis.
  • Made an embeddable "Try it on" widget that brands add with one script tag, with keys checked against the brand’s domain.
  • Covered the product with about 86 Playwright end-to-end tests and 48 API unit tests, and added guide pages in English and Urdu for search.

Outcome

  • Live at aainadekho.com. The brand widget is in a free beta.
